Standard parallel-bus structures are reaching their performance limits. The only way to increase system bandwidth is to switch to a serial-bus structure. Although serial structures promise enhanced ...

EDN Access-04.24.97 Serial backplanes supplant parallel buses in fast systems - EDN Design Design How-To ...

The first parallel-to-serial I2C interface lets designers add I2C interfaces to any digital system. The PCA9564 controller provides a 400-kHz I2C serial bus and operates from 2.5 to 3.3 V. The chip is ...

A shared channel that transmits data one bit after the other over a single wire or fiber; for example, Ethernet uses a serial bus architecture. The I/O bus from the CPU to the peripherals is a ...

This is just a general question. I know, obviously, that there are RS-232 "serial ports" and IEEE 1284/Centronix ports "parallel ports," and that these are "digital" connections. Then you have things ...

The Xtreme Bus Emulator (XBE) VXI-bus emulator allows the emulation of a digital parallel or serial bus by downloading a unique micro-code that defines the bus protocol scheduled for execution. It ...

The bus in a PC is the common hardware interface between the CPU and peripheral devices. Parallel buses with multiple lines (wires) were superseded by serial versions, which use one line for data.

For more than 20 years, the parallel bus interface has been the mainstream storage interconnect for most storage systems. But increasing bandwidth and flexibility demands have exposed inefficiencies ...

A new device can increase its data transfer speed only so much before it becomes bottlenecked by the bus interface. Some devices are phased out slowly, like ESDI hard drives; others come and go in a ...
